Well, I cried during the trailer (still do each time I see it) and cried while reserving it.... So I guess you could say I'm excited biggrin.gif

I played Fallout 3 a little bit, not enough to judge whether it was good or bad, but I liked how it was. So the skill point thing I guess I'll just have to wait and see how they work out.

The only thing I dislike is the fact that you have to fight giant spiders sad.gif I'm really arachnophobic so...

I get chills when I watch the trailer. No tears though lol.

I hate spiders too, but I hope to roast those them with a flamethrower spell while yelling "BUUUURRRN!" (continuous fire spells are going to be included)

Just make sure you don't start a forest fire in the process, or torch one of the Nord villages, or somehow set fire to the snow (which I'm sure our kitty is capable of). I know of your devious ways. tongue.gif

EDIT: It seems by some amazing quirk of fate, every new page save #2 starts with a post made by me. Whodathunkit? wacko.gif

ROFL!!! If Bethesda makes it burnable, I will come, lol.

That is one thing I liked about Fallout 3 - haven't been able to recreate it in New Vegas yet - blowing up cars.

Picture this: A group of raiders up on a highway bridge camped, using cars as barracades - or the car barracade going into The Pitt - You don't shoot at them because you are at a low level and there are so many of them ... but you can use a silenced 22 and shoot at any car far enough from you not to blow yourself up. A chain reaction begins and the fireworks is on as the cars blow up with satisfying BOOOM !!!! sounds and engulfing the area in fire for quite a few days.

It was one of the HUGE things I loved about Fallout 3, crossing the bridge behind Liberty Prime ... AWESOME !!!!!!


I have shot myself to death in New Vegas trying to blow up a vehicle and not been able to get a single one to blow. Anyone else have any better luck than me there?

I was trying it last night actually. A group of Deathclaws were hanging out next to a truck. No way I could take them all out before I got my innards ripped from my body. But hey, I had a crummy SMG with tons of bullets to spare! Only problem, THE TRUCK WOULDN'T EXPLODE!!! I don't know what gives but New Vegas doesn't really have nukable cars. Or at least they're harder to blow that FO3's. Maybe it was intentional though. I mean, it was kinda annoying how easy and often it was for cars to explode on you. Useful against an enemy, horrible when it happens to you.

I loved it once I realized what was happening - got real good at sneaking and never went anywhere without that silenced 22 to blow a clean path through a bad area. When the Enclave was released and was swarming DC proper I got blown up a few times by their helicopters zooming in from above and shooting those piles of cars that bordered the burroughs.

I remember there was a drive in movie theater in FO3 that had raiders in it. there were cars all over the place. I threw 1 grenade and the whole place went up! Body parts were flying everywhere!

And I remember plenty of times where I heard the first little explosion from a nearby car sending me into a panic!

I know which one you are talking about - (movie theatre) - it was up on a hill with a cement wall type around it - I did the same thing - AWESOME !!! Then realized Dogmeat was caught in the ruckus and had to reload a previous save, lol.
